For normal load, you can use it continuously for 60 seconds. For heavy load, max 30 seconds. Allow the appliance to cool for 1 minute before restarting.

Can I chop ice with the chopper attachment?

The handheld part, whisk holder, and chopper bowl lid should be cleaned with a soft damp cloth only. Never immerse them in water. Other parts can be washed in warm soapy water or on the top rack of the dishwasher.

What should I do if the blades are not turning?

This may be due to too much food or large chunks. Reduce the quantity or cut food smaller. Also check if food is stuck around the blades and gently remove it with a spatula.

Can I use the blender for hot liquids?

Yes, but allow the mixing foot to cool down after processing hot ingredients. Be careful of splashes and do not overfill.

Place the spindle on the spigot, then add the desired disc or multi knife. Close the lid and lock it. Insert the handheld part into the lid opening and turn clockwise. Press ON/OFF or TURBO to start.

What is the TURBO button for?

The TURBO button provides maximum speed for extra power when blending tough ingredients or when you need quick results.

Can I wash the chopper bowl in the dishwasher?

Yes, the chopper bowl can be washed on the top rack of the dishwasher. However, always rinse it with clean water immediately after use to prevent crazing from acidic ingredients.

Note: Do not use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads to clean the surfaces of your appliance. Ensure that all parts of the appliance are clean and completely dry before storage.

To avoid crazing of the chopper bowl, always rinse the chopper bowl with only clean water right after usage. This is to prevent acids or essential oils from the ingredients that may attack the plastic material. After rinsing the chopper bowl, it can be washed by hand with detergent, or placed into the dishwasher for cleaning.

Avoid leaving the ready dishes (e.g. soup, smoothie, juice) in the chopper bowl for a long time, especially when acidic ingredients (e.g. lime, lemon) is processed.

Always rinse the chopper bowl thoroughly with only clean water before placing it to the dishwasher. However, if crazing would appear, the effect is purely cosmetic and it does not have any impact the integrity of the chopper bowl.
